The professional baseball umpire union is STRONG

I went to professional umpire school (worked and was taught by guys like Adam Beck, Brennan Miller, Nestor Ceja, & Edwin Moscoso)

A frequent topic of discussion was always how good and strong the MLB umpires union was and how protected guys were.

DeChambeau is using 3D printed irons that he designed?

Yes lol.


Also, is there an update on Scheffler’s wife? I think, barring maybe Morikawa, that’ll be the only thing that stops him.

Bryson could put up a number, but he’s too volitale right now IMO

If Henley wins this weekend I’ll buy you guys all a beer

Xander and Hideki….pshhhh.

I did jump in live at +2000 with Homa yesterday. Would be awesome if he can get to 5 or 6 under as they wrap up R1.


Does Bryson keep this up all weekend? Only thing keeping Scottie from winning could be the birth of a child.  He’s a freak

Who do we like at Augusta this week?

Scottie (obvi). Xander too. I'd say those are the guys.

Rahm, Hideki, Fitz too.

Would love to see Finau win. Morikawa has been trash lately (sorry Laley).

JT and Spieth maybe??? 


I like the prices I got Koepka (+2100), Deki (+2700), Wyndham (+3200), and Henley (+11000) at

Henley is getting a lot of love too. Was at +11000 last week now closer to +6000.

Hit Bhatia this weekend at +6500. Unfortunately it was .15u wager only. Oh well, I’ll take a win! First of the season.

Norfolk just put up a 10 spot in first inning tonight. Baltimore has an embarrassment of riches

Here in NWO we have maybe had a day or two thus far that has been worthy of going out and playing. Wet, cold, and dreary.

Hoping weather breaks next week.

birddog23 replied to "MLB Season Thread 2024" at 12:49 pm

How bad would the Norfolk Tides beat the Oakland A's right now?

Best of 7 series....I think the Tides could take them.

I got Brooksy at +2100 next week. Also have Wyndham Clark at +3200.

Feelin' good!

Does anyone have a points update?

I have to think with NC State and DJ Horne advancing, plus your UConn duo - you have this thing wrapped up. 

I have myself for 427 with Loyer (Purdue) and Griffen (Bama) left.

Kind of actually feel bad for Houston. Seems they have great teams about every year now, but key injuries happen at bad times and they get beat earlier than expected. Losing Snead killed them last night. Kept it close, but never got over the hump. Fucking Duke...

It’s redemption from 2011 when Duke lost Kyrie for 2/3 of the year. That team was very good but never was able to heel gel and establish roles.

I honestly think there's 5 of us that could still win this thing.

JSchilling wins this thing if Duke, Marquette, Tennesee, and NC State all advance. He has the Spencer/Karaban combo at UConn already and if he gets some support from those other teams - it's over.

Turtles has the stud in Shannon Jr and has a lot of guys left - but 4 of his guys are like 6/7ppg scorers. Turtles will lose 1 of Shannon Jr or Castle from UConn tomorrow.

Sportschamps is interesting with his 3 Alabama guys, but Wrightsell is injured currently. Has Alexander from Creighton and Jones from Purdue going tonight. Could really use a Creighton win.

Mirg still has that chance with Edey and Shead. Hawkins from Illinois advancing helps too. Has Ashworth (CREI) and Joplin (MARQ) still.

RollBrowns has Schierman CREI, Sears BAMA, Roach DUKE, Hall CLEM, and Hickman ZAGA. Could be interesting for him if Creighton, Duke, and Zaga pull out wins tonight. 

I've got Griffen from Bama advancing and Girard from Clemson as well. Have the combo of Proctor/Mitchell (Duke) tonight vs Roberts HOU - so I will lose someone there tonight. Also have Loyer PUR vs Nembhard ZAGA going so going to lose someone there. Then Ighodaro from MARG. Likely need a Duke and Zaga win. Unlikely.

I have a realistic shot if my guys win.. I think. Relies on UConn losing to Illinois….

It would be close. Luckily for you, Edey could still score 100 points. Shead has been solid too.

Illinois and Creighton advancing would definitely be huge you.

Turtles went chalk and was rewarded with a nice boost from the Zaga guys. It’ll be interesting to see if any of his guys have some “breakout” games to see if he can catch Jschilling. 


Terry could make it close if Houston advances to NC and his guys perform well. 

Sportschampps is a big Alabama fan. And could use Iowa St advancing to FF. 

I have a lot of guys (9) but I think realistically I’ll only have 4 left going into the EE games. A Duke or Clemson upset would give me some hope.

135 off top of my head

birddog23 replied to "NCAA 2024 Player Pick’em" at 05:33 pm

Do I get any credit for Nembhard’s 12 assists?

birddog23 replied to "NCAA 2024 Player Pick’em" at 10:46 am

Kentucky and Auburn going down hurt a lot of us. 9 guys drafted from those teams. I ended up advancing 10 of 12 but would have loved having 11 or 12 (thanks a lot UK/AUB)
